Ford Ranger Raptor Overview

The pickup truck segment is being threatened by a new player – the taunting Ford Ranger Raptor is now in the Philippines. The perfect truck for those who think the Ranger isn't fearsome enough, this Raptorized Ranger features frame-mounted bumper and composite material fenders in black. The grille gives out the obvious with the enlarged Ford typography, as this is not your typical Ranger. Raptor, for Ford, is a badge given to trucks that are not to be messed with and the Ranger Raptor is the latest example on that.

Inside, you'll be reminded over and over with a handful of Raptor logos to sustain your confidence – in case you keep on forgetting you're driving a Raptor. In contrast to its brute exterior, the Ranger Raptor features a gentle and comfortable cabin. Thanks to the body-hugging bucket seats, leather touches, and neat interior design, there's no stress in driving this monster. Add the new coilover rear suspension that uses a Watt's link setup for a better ride handling and greater lateral control.

Under the hood is the latest addition 2.0-liter twin-turbo diesel engine which gives out 210 hp and 500 Nm of torque. This is mated to a 10-speed automatic transmission that's borrowed from its bigger brother F-150 Raptor.
